We call that "hindsight" and misattribute later results to former results.  Having kicked the field goal would not have necessarily led to the same outcome.  With the only results we know for sure, it would have been a tied game.

 

There is a reason why there is an old sage, "never take points off of the board".

No we don't.  How do you not realize this?  We were up 6-3 when we went for it on 4th and 2 in the red zone.  It would not have been a tied game.  

 

How you don't get that, had we kicked the field goal, the rest of the game may not have played out exactly the same way is beyond me ...

Ok. I guess we just need to agree that it is beyond you.

Yep, beyond me how you can say the last two sentences in your first paragraph with a straight face ...

simple math says you go for it every time in that situation. your expected points are greater than 3. problem was we didn't stop them and force a punt deep in their territory.

willie will be fine but the fact that we still stock up on false starts and illegal motion penalties is really concerning.

How can he be a bust it's not like he inherited a top level team and turned them into a two win team.

He will be fine give him a few more years to complete the turn around.

Very very very painful watching the offense last night.  Especially in the first half.  For awhile our offense was gaining more yards for UCF then the UCF offense was.

Usf fans are known for defending the Undefendable.

Same guys making cases for Willie made cases for Robert McCullum. I can't take them seriously

Willie is a bust right now and will be in years to come. Write it down, I know I'm right.

Best case Woolard is canned this year and new ad has half a brain and fires Willie immediately. Then we can talk about rebuilding
